Windfall throwback
Hi Jen and Jill. Before I go into my mini experience with a windfall - I want to start by sharing how incredibly important what you ladies are doing is for your ever growing frugal friends community. I absolutely love listening to both of your soothing voices, but also all the wonderful advice you give in such a variety of ways. You speak to me in a way that makes it feel like I am the third friend you’re talking to. Thank you for your vulnerability, your honest suggestions & the kindness you radiate, leaving space for everyone at the frugal table.
My windfall - when I was 8 years old my very frugal (SAHM) mom was seriously saving to take me on a dance trip to Europe. We did fundraising, I saved my allowance & family members chipped in with $$ for gifts leading up to my trip. One afternoon my grandmother and I were walking downtown and I found a WAD (yes way more than 2 crumpled up fives 😉) and not a cellphone to be found. It was a tough year for my family with the loss of my grandfather and that $$ allowed for some extra fun when we landed.
Anyway thanks for everything you do!! Can’t wait to tune in to more episodes!!
Amazingly Helpful, Funny and Friendly
Thank you so much Jen & Jill, I’m from northern Canada and have been listening to this podcast for two years. Not only do I love the life hacks and guests, but your podcast and tips have inspired me to make and keep an insanely complex monthly and year-long budget that I visit almost daily and in addition to this, using your tips I was able to renegotiate on all of our insurance, reduce bills, cutout subscriptions, make way better financial choices and setup a second retirement investment savings account with my bank! Thank you for helping others with your friendly and funny shows and I’ve now started to really really pay attention to my grocery bills. I’m obsessed and having so much fun! Also, I gave a sushi/budget class to my daughter and now her friends are asking for the same budget classes from me, which I’ve also started providing! I love being able to pass along your podcast and your tips to these girls! Thank you both so much!! 😀😀😀👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Music to my ears!
These gals are wonderful and cover important topics in such a simple, relatable and entertaining way. I love listening to them to get a little boost of motivation and to hear their lovely voices and the great chemistry between the two friends. Highly recommend the podcast to anyone at any stage of their financial wellness journey. Can’t wait to call in with my Bill of the Week someday!
